Book: The Fault in Our Stars
Author: John Green
Hazel is a girl with thyroid cancer.
Her parents took her to Support Group in the hope that she could feel supportive.
In there, she met Augustus－the boy with prosthetics totally drew
a charm on her－and they became so
close to each other. They discussed together about Hazel’s favorite book An Imperial Affliction and both
fascinated to the puzzling ending. Thus they decided to visit the author to
check it out.
Actually, Hazel hated Support Group because she thought what people there
did was sharing their tragedy and taking pity on each other. She intended to
escape; on the other hand, she wanted her parents happy. So she went at last, and
met Augustus. I have been thinking that it is destiny. We meet many people in
our life. Some people would eventually leave at some time while some would
stay. It’s so fortunate that a total stranger becomes one of your closest one
and you two can share things together.
I like Augustus's metaphor. He took cigarette on his month but never lit it. He said it was a metaphor of death, a metaphor that reminded of death. We all need a reminder in our life, to remind us of some important things. I used to have a reminder－a bracelet－to often reminds me of persistence. Every time I felt depressed and wanted to give up, I thought of my bracelet.
